Why teams connect IBM AS/400 and Outreach

Treat Outreach like part of your database: its records live in IBM AS/400 as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in IBM AS/400, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Mailings, Calls, Tasks, Opportunities from Outreach into Rows / records, Journals and journal receivers, Data queues, Libraries in IBM AS/400 with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Outreach with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Pull mailing, call, and task activity into a database for engagement analytics beyond native reports.
  • Keep account ownership and stages aligned between Outreach and the CRM as territories change.
  • Keep customer and item files aligned with an ecommerce platform or modern ERP during phased modernization.
  • Feed shipment and invoice data from the AS/400 into logistics and finance tools in near real time.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to IBM AS/400 sync onto the matching records in Outreach, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Outreach API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Outreach arrive as row changes in IBM AS/400, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between IBM AS/400 and Outreach

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

IBM AS/400 objects Outreach objects
Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources. Sequences Multi-step cadences; synced as reference data for enrollment automation
Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs. Sequence states Per-prospect enrollments; writing one adds a prospect to a cadence
Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Mailings Sent emails with engagement data, pulled for activity analytics
Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Calls Logged call records synced into engagement reporting
Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Tasks Rep action items mirrored between Outreach and the CRM
Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads. Opportunities Deal records used to tie engagement to pipeline outcomes
